Newcastle Knights vs Gold Coast Titans NRL Round 26 betting tips. Our expert NRL tipster previews Sunday’s game at the Newcastle International Sports Centre.
The Gold Coast Titans are heading south to get stuck into the Newcastle Knights on Sunday arvo at the Newcastle International Sports Centre.
The Knights are coming off a strong performance against the Rabbitohs and still have a shot at making the top 8. The Titans lost again, this time going down to the Roosters 48-22 and have now lost three games in a row.
Prediction: Knights to Win
The Titans have struggled to win away from home this season, winning just four games. Also, morale is likely to be low as Gold Coast can’t make the top 8. The Knights have strung together three impressive performances in a row and will be fired up for this one.
Not only do Newcastle have a home-ground advantage, but if they can win, they have a chance to sneak into the finals. We don’t see the Titans being able to match the Knight’s intensity, Ponga’s boot and Gagai’s speed will prove the difference in this game.
Line – Knights -5.5
In the Titans’ last 5 losses, they’ve gone down by 6 points or more each time. Also, in the Knights’ last 2 victories, they’ve won by 6 points or more. With the home-ground advantage and Ponga in fine form, the Knights should win by a converted try or more.
